[@TomTalley]

Thanks, another great informative trip. About windage...sounds like flying a small plane ... With strong crosswind from starboard, as you slow down you are kicking more and more left rudder to keep the plane from rounding up into the wind. When you run out of rudder, you use brakes...and when you run out of brakes you hope you are pointed between the runway lights. Same deal..stern windage. Did a little off-roading with a Cessna 172 in Lubbock Texas one afternoon...thanks again for the ride.

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Tom. Very cool info. CUOTO

[@TimsBitsnPieces]

It's nice that you still say where you are at and passing as not all of us have come at the start or earlier in the piece or like me... joining from Melbourne Australia and have no idea where you are or going to.. It is definitely a larger port than here in Melb.. I love seeing all the different ships, tugs, barges and maritime vessels over there. Great stuff. Here is a funny for you, when you were talking about "The Kills" I googled it and it comes up as a band name, so I had to change it to maritime meaning and then I got the correct meaning.

[@TimBatSea]

Lol That is very funny! Thank you again for watching Tim. CUOTO

I used to launch my Sea Ray at the ramp adjacent to that dock in Sewaren and head down to Sandy Hook and anchor in Horseshoe Cove for the weekend and would take some friends up the Kill for an evening cruise around Manhattan..biggest issue for me was pulling up plastic bags around my outdrives so paying attention to engine temps was an issue.

Nice driving Captain, Tim! And thanks to Captain, Shawn for the assistance at the end there. I'm sure that little bit of help was much appreciated, especially in those conditions. Team work! 👍 Sine note: I'm a long time drag racing fan and there is a guy from the north east named Bill Dee, who has owned many nitro funny cars over the last 4 or 5 decades. The name he uses on his cars is "Nor' Easter". If you google "Nor' Easter funny car" and click on images you'll see what I'm talking about.

A kill is a body of water, most commonly a creek, but also a tidal inlet, river, strait, or arm of the sea. The term is derived from the Middle Dutch kille (kil in modern Dutch), meaning "riverbed" or "water channel".

It's funny how the time lapse makes the smoke/steam look like a fireboat playing around with her water cannons. (top left of video at 5:05 to 5:20). .... Also, you can really see the effect of all that mass in how long it takes your course and heading to line back up whenever you make a turn, especially when you're steering for the bridge at 7:00. That could just be an optical illusion from the waves coming across at an angle, though (not sure if those are the right terms, I mean where you're pointed vs. direction of your movement).

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Dion and very good observation. In the case at the bridge, I think it was accentuated because I had to slow down for traffic. Please consider subscribing if you haven't already. I try to post new content every Tuesday. CUOTO

For me the time laps was perfect. What looked like a “simple” job but none are simple..... are they!!! The help from a fellow skipper who knew it can be done by you and your crew and also knew what a little help could make it much much easier ( and safety) for the full crew not just the skipper.

Wiz Juice is right. A few years ago an animal rights group attempted to force Fishkill, NY to change it's name, not knowing that "kill" was Dutch for stream or body of water. The town officials quite rightly told them to take a hike. Very nice job, Captain. I, for one like the speeded up video.

Hey Tim, one of my favorite narrowboat YT channels in the UK releases two videos of their journey sometimes. The normal sped-up vlog with commentary, and then a "slow TV" version that's in real time and may be hours and hours. I'm sure people will still complain either way, but might be worth a shot.

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching. I should welcome you to the channel, thinking that you must be relatively new to it. I made two or three "two version" videos. One was a flat video for those that preferred flat, and the other was a 360 video in realtime. I stopped doing it because the incredible amount of extra work and data time didn't justify the small viewing public that watched the 360 versions. CUOTO

Mostly It is for testing and hoining my skills. Since my boat is on the hard, now. We're looking at the snows, this coming week, and I suspect, that's not fun either. Adding some mass to the barges.

@@TimBatSea THANK YOU SIR!!! Yes, twin 300's, and shes a 2021 so I trust her:) Very helpful color - was anxious to hear, you're the man!!!

[@ranger2316]

This was way cool ... like seeing the backside of New Jersey that we never see ... or ... maybe that was the front side. Anyway, thank you for the video, I enjoyed it. Please be safe. BTW ... did you get your boat?

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching. Not yet. The same thing that helped sell my house has hindered my boat buying experience. All the good ones are gone or way over priced. But I am making arrangements to see a couple before I come back to work next month. Wish me luck. CUOTO

[@ranger2316]

@@TimBatSea Hey, best of luck, there's one out there with your name on it! Thanks for the videos and the narrative.

Thank you for watching Brian. We only have one rule on here and that is that we try very hard to directly mention by name Tugs, Companies or Customers. CUOTO

Wish I knew when you were going through the Canal I would have gone there and waved at you! And I’m in Boston right now watching this Video! 👍 CUOTO!

Nice video! Not related, but I recently found that there is a lonely single ITB still running on the Great Lakes. Hre name is the Presque Isle. We saw her years ago passing Clayton, NY on the St. Lawrence. CUOTO

[@TimBatSea]

Wow. Are you sure? The reason why I asked, is that they have to be manned like a ship making them way to expensive to operate. Are you sure it wasn't an ATB? Thank you for watching. CUOTO

[@mwechtal]

@@TimBatSea Well, I looked it up in a book they put out each year for Great Lakes shipping: "Know Your Ships". Also freighterfreak.wordpress.com/presque-isle/ Has a couple photos near the bottom of the separated tug. Weird!

[@TimBatSea]

@@mwechtal Wow. Incredible! Thank you.

[@mc1847]

Great videos. You should do one on understanding channel markers.

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching. Good idea. CUOTO

[@dougbourdo2589]

Growing up next to Lake Michigan we learned about Nor'Easters as they were the scourge of shipping back to the days of schooners. Hundreds of shipwrecks litter the bottoms of the Great Lakes. A relatively few make for great scuba diving. You definitely DONOT want to be out on the lake in a recreational boat if a Nor'Easter kicks up.

[@TimBatSea]

Roger that! 😂 Thank you very much for watching Doug. CUOTO

[@anglertales]

Great video.
